PER CURIAM: Nathaniel A. Mims was convicted
of trafficking in cocaine and sentenced to twenty years in prison. Mims’s appellate
counsel has petitioned to be relieved as counsel, stating he has reviewed the
record and has concluded Morgan’s appeal is without merit. The sole issue on
appeal is whether the circuit court erred in failing suppress drug evidence.
No separate pro se brief was filed.

After a review of the record as required by Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C.
116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we hold there are no directly appealable issues
that are arguable on their merits. Accordingly, we dismiss Mims’s appeal and
grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.1

APPEAL DISMISSED.

GOOLSBY, HOWARD, and KITTREDGE, JJ., concur.

1 Because oral argument would not aid the court in resolving
the issues on appeal, we decide this case without oral argument pursuant to
Rules 215 and 220(b)(2), SCACR.
